Eintracht Frankfurt 2-2 Leipzig

Frankfurt started the match as if eager to make amends for their heavy 4-2 defeat in Mainz last week and went on the front foot early on. However, they struggled to convert their pressure into clear-cut openings, although Haris Seferovic did have a couple of half-chances. Leipzig took the lead against the run of play when Benno Schimtz crossed for Marcel Sabitzer to tap in from close range, giving the visitors the advantage at half-time.

The Eagles again controlled the opening exchanges after the break, but were caught out by a clinical Leipzig side once more. Emil Forsberg chalked up his 19th assist of the campaign when he whipped in a corner from the left for Yussuf Poulsen to flick in with a karate kick inside the six-yard box. The match appeared to be over at that point, but Frankfurt fought back to secure an unlikely draw thanks to late strikes from substitutes Jesus Vallejo and Danny Blum.

Man of the match

Diego Demme celebrated is maiden call-up to the senior Germany side earlier in the week with another accomplished performance, covering more ground (12.07 kilometres), having more touches (86) and completing more passes (61) than anyone else on the pitch.

Talking point

Leipzig were on course to set a new Bundesliga points record for a promoted team, but ended up falling one short of the best-mark set by Kaiserslautern, who won the 1997/98 title with 68.
